on: What you learn by making a new programming language
Similar to woodworkers making their own tools, as programmers, we have the ability to create everything from operating systems to tools. This privilege is rare in other fields, allowing us to get closer to the tools we use. This autonomy enables us to have a deeper understanding and mastery of the tools and technologies we rely on.

on: EchoMimic:An audio clip, an image, generate a digital person
For traditional approaches, using only audio-driven methods can sometimes be unstable due to relatively weak audio signals, while relying solely on facial keypoints can lead to unnatural videos as it exerts too much control over the keypoints. EchoMimic, on the other hand, can not only generate portrait videos using audio or facial keypoints separately but also combine the two for generation.

A very interesting attempt, but it requires some hardware-related knowledge to make a similar attempt like the blogger.

on: China's drivers fret as robotaxis pick up pace – and passengers
As passengers, most people are not actually anxious; instead, they hope to experience something novel. The only thing we worry about is that in the future, some people may lose their jobs because of this.

Indeed, there is too much noise, and it seems there's nothing worth listening to.
